New Work

Just completed a new piece: 'Autumn Reading'. Also posted a video of the process here.

Hope you like!

New Work

It's been far too long since I posted to SFG. Sorry about that...

I've been busy making some fundamental changes to my illustrations style as well as updating the content of my portfolio. Thought I would share a few pieces.

To see more of my new work, check out my new portfolio.

Row Your Boat...

This is the cover artwork for a kindergarten reader's theater book of "Row Row Row Your Boat."

Rufus

It's been along time since I last posted... please forgive me.

This is a drawing I did for a local ad agency. Every year they host a fund-raising fun-run during the Halloween season called the Scream Scram. The catch: the run is at night and they encourage everyone to dress in costumes and bring their dogs to participate!

They like to have a mascot drawing to go on entry forms, outdoor advertising (he was on a billboard!) and souvenir t-shirts.

Anyway, his name is Rufus and the team at Scream Agency let me pretty much have free reign on what I wanted to do.

SFG: Dragon - Sketches

Not much time this week to contribute much more than some sketches...

SFG: Superhero - Shazam!

Yesterday's Superhero posting was a little dark so I decided to go the opposite direction... Captain Marvel!

SHAZAM! was probably the first comic book I recall reading when I was a little kid and I've loved the character ever since. I'm not fond of the changes DC has been making to him recently, but I'm looking forward to Mike Kunkel's SHAZAM! comicbook coming out soon. His designs look awesome!

SFG: Superhero - Dr. Fate

One of my favorite heroes when I was collecting comics was DC's Dr. Fate. Loved the helmet!

Headshots...

These are a few drawings from a project I did for a children's publisher over the holidays... thought they would be fun to post.

Asto Lounge Girls

It's been a while since I last posted... due to projects and the holiday madness... but I hope to get back into the swing of things.
I did these pieces for a design firm that wanted to give a series of cocktail coaster to past clients. One side had the retro pinup girls on one side and a drink recipe on the other. I ended up doing a series of five different girls... these were two of my faves. Really fun project!

Anyway, I hope everyone had a great holiday and has a great new year!

PYBOT: Illustration Friday: The Blues

This is my entry for this week's Illustration Friday topic... a slime monster with the blues. Actually, this sketch has been sitting on my desk for the last few weeks and I was looking for an excuse to finish it out.

Also, I just updated my website for Halloween, if you'd like to check it out: www.geraldkelley.com

PYBOT: Mothman

Here's my last minute contribution to PYBOT...

I've been reading The Mothman Prophecies this last week and I figured it would be fun to do my own take on this particular boogeyman.

My website...

"Catch it!!!"

I just completed this piece this evening. I had this image in my head and decided to go for it.

Audrey

I watched Breakfast at Tiffany's this evening and I was inspired.

New Finished Illustration

Here's an illustration I just finished as a personal project. Fall is hitting and I wanted to do something that reflected that...


Here's a few details...

I modeled the dog after our Border Collie, Scout.

PYBOT: SFG: Bugs

Since my last posting for BUGS was a little dark, I figured I should post something a little more fun...

SFG: Bugs

Here's my entry for SFG:BUGS...

I've been reading a lot of Edgar Allen Poe lately and I just finished The Gold Bug from his Tales of Mystery and Imagination and I thought this would be a good excuse to post the final illustration.

You can see more of my new work at geraldkelley.com

Edgar Allen Poe

I've been reading Poe's Tales of Mystery and Imagination.

Interstellar!

This is my submission for Illustration Friday: Visitors.

This is another attempt at softening my digital work. I'm really excited at how these are coming out.

PYBOT: Nessie

This is a personal project of mine. I've been wanting to explore a softer look to my digital work and this is one of the first to do it on a larger scale.
